When it comes to lipsticks, I’m always so boring. I rarely walk away from some of my favorite products. They are always nude. Whether it’s a muddy lip liner like Refy’s or a tinted lip oil from Summer Friday. But when fall (my favorite season) rolls around, something inside me clicks and I know it’s time to reach for a burgundy lip stain.
The product I chose (after trying nearly 100 different ones to find the perfect shade and texture) is Fenty Beauty’s Poutsicle Lip Stain. This one was trending on TikTok a few years ago, and here’s why it’s a fall must-have. If you love cozy knits, crisp leaves, pumpkin spice, and have rewatched Gilmore Girls a million times, you’ll love this seasonal lip stain.
Fenty Beauty Pootsicle Lip Stain, Berry Banger
What makes Fenty Beauty Poutsicle Lip Stain so great?
Let’s start with color. In my opinion, this is the perfect burgundy. Not too dark, not too purple, not too red. It tastes like the perfect mix of red wine and crushed berries. This makes it a gorgeous color for October and a nice color to wear through the holidays in December.

It’s quite sheer (but still buildable) and has a true stain effect that looks slightly smudged and soft. It also has great durability that lasts like a lip stain.
I love the berry banger shade of this lip product, but if burgundy isn’t your thing, three other shades are also available. You can choose from red, pink, and coral, which can be used regardless of the season.
Ingredient-wise, this stain features moisturizing squalene, an innovative oil-in-water type that makes its consistency feel very unique on the lips.
How to apply Fenty Beauty burgundy lip stain?
Application of Fenty Beauty’s Pushicle Lip Stain is very important to achieve a specific type of finish. Interestingly, the brand’s officially recommended application method is a little different from how TikTokers used the product, which led to it going viral.
Fenty Beauty’s online instructions simply say, “Apply one layer to the center of your lips, working outwards.” Doing this will give you a glossy tint effect.
However, if you want a more classic shaded look (which is what I look like wearing in these photos), you have the option of applying the product and removing the top layer by dabbing with tissue paper after a minute. there is. Of brilliance.

In my opinion, this not only changes the finish, but also extends its lifespan. This means that the color will not fade even if you eat or drink it. The only downside to using it this way is that it can feel a bit drying, so it’s essential to apply a non-shiny lip balm before and during use.
No matter how you wear it, I say this is your new fall essential.
